  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • Optional: 1/2 tsp onion powder

  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic, spinach, half of the mozzarella, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and optional spices.
  3. Place chicken breasts in the baking dish and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Spread the spinach dip mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.

Notes

Use fresh spinach if preferred—just sauté and drain it before adding.Add chopped artichoke hearts for a spinach artichoke dip flavor.Swap chicken breasts for thighs for a juicier texture.Low-fat or Greek yogurt can be used in place of sour cream.Not ideal for freezing due to dairy content separation.
